Cigar and what?

Looks like a lot of people really enjoy the sweet tea.

What brands do you guys like best? Figure it differs from state to state. I like Gold Peak the best. I've tried one from Snapple, Arizona, and some other, and they all weren't sweet at all.

WOW!!! To me, Arizona is so sweet, I can't drink it!! I grew up in deep south, where sweet tea rules. But I can't handle what most southerners consider sweet tea! After a pound or so of sugar in tea, all there is to the taste is the sugar! I seldom buy sweet tea, prefer to make it myself. Mainly, I prefer Lipton, and I usually use 3/4 or less of sugar per gallon. Ran across a waitress at Buffalo Wild Wings last week that uses 3 cups of sugar per gallon! Makes my teeth hurt thinking about that!

I like normal iced tea too. Usually with a little bit of lemon in it. But I'll drink unsweetened too. I guess Arizona is sweet, it just doesn't have the sweet tea taste to it.

But I've never been to the south so I'm not sure what the true traditional style is.
